Follow the flow chart to register the transmitter recognition code with the door control receiver.

Note: If the prescribed conditions are not while registering the transmitter code, the receiver returns to normal operation.

There are 3 modes: add mode, rewrite mode and confirmation mode; the mode to use is decided after the recognition code is registered.

If maximum of 4 recognition codes can be registered.

Note: The add mode is used to retain codes already registered while you register new recognition codes. However, if the number of registered codes exceeds 4 codes, previously registered codes are correspondingly erased in order, starting from the first registered code.

The rewrite mode is used to erase all previously registered codes before registering new recognition codes. This mode is used when replacing the transmitter or door control receiver.

The confirmation mode is for confirming how many recognition codes are already registered before you register additional recognition codes.
